I must have walked straight past this when I logged Aldoth in 2017. No metal work all removed.

I believe Andy West has indeed found the remains of Raise How. It is by the track to the north of the replacement Aldoth pillar, near the junction of the fences. It is toppled as well as moved and has suffered significant damage over the years. There is no spider, and no sign of the FB - it could have been on one of the faces that is badly damaged, or it could be facing down. The sighting holes and centre tube are clear.

Pasture. OS records this destroyed December 1968. Replaced by Aldoth (FB 11397) located approx 35m SW in the hedgerow, which was computed June 1968. ***Revisited 23 Nov 2020. Pillar found toppled in hedgerow S side lane ~70m NW of its original installation (which was NY 13648 48490). Top section broken away, no spider or flush bracket. Thanks to Andy West for finding it in 2018.

Let the GPS count down to this location whilst visiting nearby pillar. GPS seemed to settle on a small platform of flat ground, maybe the former base?

Cumberland. A better location than its replacement - in the open rather than in a gorse hedge. But, a lower score because it's not there!

A bit weird to have this so close to Aldoth.. I wonder if it was simply a lift and shift job.
